But the filming of the Shadow has been completed, and there is no need for actors to take the stage...... No, the point is, why did he say that?

May, who didn't expect the other party to make such a request, was at a loss for a moment.

Probably knowing that his statement was a bit frightening, Cajun quickly added, "It's not a cancellation, it's just a temporary suspension, let's say I feel unwell and need to rest—if it's a week or so, I think the officials will agree to let us meet Your Majesty." ”

"But......" Mei Yi wanted to say that the Shadow was completely different from the past plays, and that the performance was not under the responsibility of the Starflower Troupe, but as soon as this "but" opened her mouth, it attracted Röntgenium's ridicule.

It can be seen that she has endured for a long time.

"I said earlier that your efforts were in vain, and she had done so single-handedly, so how could she stop it temporarily? ”

"I thought you had just gone astray and given up on the pursuit of drama, but I didn't expect to get to such a point," Benise stomped her foot unwillingly, "and I said good things about you that day...... Mrs. Lannis, what do you think of theatre as a tool for making a name for yourself?"

"If she doesn't say it, we'll still be in the dark, wife of Chief Knight Carter Lannis, isn't it normal for those officials to want to curry favor with her? I don't believe that with Teacher Cakin's reputation, His Majesty Roland won't even give him a chance to perform!"

"That's enough!" cried Cajun Fez, "I didn't come to her to hear you arguing! and I don't think Maye would do that, so if you don't trust my judgment, leave this room." I just want to hear her answer now!"

Oh my God, Maye was so surprised that she almost couldn't close her mouth, and from the ridicule of these people, she pieced together an incredible story - the Cajun Troupe wanted to perform a play to His Majesty before the enthronement ceremony, and submitted an application to the town hall in accordance with the statutes, but the reply was an unexpected refusal, so after learning that she was married to the chief knight, Roentgen and the others thought that she was the obstacle, and asked the officials below to suppress the application and directly give the troupe a closed door?

This is really a big misunderstanding!

If things really turned out to be what she thought, the undisguised hostility of the other party could be explained.

Whether it is a refusal to see, disappointment, or even a battle for the role, it is just a contradiction between actors. It's so common in the theater world that no one is going to hate anyone because of it. But the use of other forces to interfere with the performance of the other side is quite different, and it can be regarded as an invasion of the cause of the theater performer.

If it were her, I was afraid that she would be more indignant and contemptuous than them.

"Except for the troupe members who were with me that day, I didn't talk to anyone about what happened at the hotel. "I can guarantee that. ”

"I believe that, too, and that's why I've decided to talk to you," Kajin rubbed his forehead, "We don't know anything about this newly established city, we don't know what the problem is, and we're doing it out of frustration. Of course, we'll make amends afterwards. ”

At the mention of the word compensation, Röntgen and the others frowned and looked away.

And Mei didn't have the heart to think about what the compensation was at the moment, and with what she knew about Cajun Fez, the other party must have his reasons for mentioning it.

"Before I answer you, I'd like to ask a question," she thought for a moment, "and your steward mentioned earlier that you're disappointed in me...... Why?"

The old man was silent for a long time, then waved his hand to the famous actors.

"Teacher......" Roentgen seemed to want to say something, but eventually shut up and turned to leave the study.

The rest of the people followed, and soon the two of them were the only ones left in the room.

Cajun Fez's gaze was at May, and the reproach in his eyes made the latter evade.

"How many plays have you starred in in the past two years?"

However, the other party's words surprised her.

"Uh...... Seven-eight?" Maye hesitated.

"There are twelve works in total," Karkin said, breaking his hands, "Cinderella, A Witch's Tale, Dawn, New City...... Not to mention the scripts themselves, do you really think you can play them well?"

Maye froze, "These...... You've seen it all?"

No, it was a stupid question, and she immediately realized that her performance was mainly in the West, and he should have heard it talked about.

Sure enough, Kajin shook his head, "There are my students in all four realms of Grey Keep, and it's not difficult to know about this. He sighed, "And when you starred in "The Prince's Love", you spent more than half a year and two months. ”

Mei didn't answer, she already realized the meaning of the other party's words.

A vivid performance is honed by a lot of behind-the-scenes time, which is an unbreakable law in the theater industry, and even the most talented actor cannot guarantee that he will memorize every line and every action in a short period of time.

In fact, due to the rehearsal of too many plays, she did make a lot of low-level mistakes that she had not made before—such as remembering the wrong lines, using the wrong expressions, etc., which may be difficult to detect in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of the discerning audience, they will inevitably seem particularly abrupt.

"I don't know why you moved from the Long Opera House to the Frontier and started performing this kind of acrobatic show at the same time," said Cajun in a deep voice, "and there may have been orders from the lord, but he couldn't have forced you to do so without your will." After all, theater is a dance in full view, and no one can dance in shackles. May—" he did not use Mrs. Lannis's name, but reverted to the tone of his old teachings, "you should know very well that the quality of the audience can in turn contribute to the skill of the actors, and if you don't have high demands and high standards, where will you have the motivation to move forward......?

can't refute, or even say a word of justification, because Mei knows that the other party is right - judging from the level of performance alone, she is indeed in a declining stage recently, and the time devoted to practice has not only been greatly reduced, but the drama "Wolf's Heart" has even pushed off her role. One drama after another did not allow her to delve into it, and it took her a lot of energy to support the Xinghua Troupe.

After a long time, she asked, "Have you been preparing for this play for a long time?"

"Exactly two years," said Kakin proudly, "we have been practicing it for two years, except for the old plays, and even on the boat, in this inn, we have not wasted a breath of time. Every detail has been perfected, and with just the right platform, these kids can put on a perfect drama – even more perfect than my pinnacle of Love. ”

He looked directly at May, "I believe you are not mistaken, although you have failed to live up to the gift bestowed by the gods, but your love for drama is not fake. If you can enjoy a wonderful drama, you will be happy from the bottom of your heart, am I right?"
